why?

i've been gone. again. i know. you can't keep up. when i'm not around. but it felt right. it felt good to be away, ok? the pressure of blogging daily can be too much. especially when you pile on job(s), littles, friends, to-do lists, travel, recitals, concerts, games, etc.

it. just felt. right.

i needed a break.

but a friend asked. "why?". "why do you think you have to blog every day? can't you blog a couple times a week?" "take some of the pressure off. do it once in awhile. keep up...if it's something you enjoy, do it as you want to do it."

i think she might be right. you see. the pressure of blogging daily became too much. another to-do on a long list of to-do's. and everyday it got pushed to the bottom of the list. i know you don't want to read about my littles everyday. sure they are cute and funny. but there are probably more interesting things for you out there. i felt pressure to be original. to be clever. to be interesting. i think i owed to you.

so i thought about what she said. "why?"

why is it pressure?

why has it become a chore. a task. a to-do lister.

where did the fun go? the interest? the inspiration?

well. to be honest. i'm not sure. but what i do know is this: i've missed it. sharing. chatting. learning. i'm going to try to be back in this space a few times a week. as i can. you'll have to check in. see my progress. encourage!
